LANCASTER — A hearing was held in Coos County Superior Court Tuesday on a motion by defense attorneys to suppress part of a police interrogation of the truck driver in the June 2019 collision that killed seven motorcyclists in Randolph. At issue is a statement the defendant, 25-year old Volodymyr Zhukovskyy, made in the middle of an interrogation by two N.H. State Police officers three days after the accident.

Defense Attorneys Steve Mirkin and Jay Duguay argued Zhukovskyy invoked his right to stop the questioning half way through the interrogation when he said, “I mean, like, right now, I don’t even want to answer anything. Like, I’m just, like, out of it.”
